LessWaste Turns Everyday Packaging Into a Waste Ledger
An evidence-based archive lets readers look up household and toiletry products, weigh their plastic waste, compare alternatives, and inspect the underlying sources.
Field notes
The homepage frames product waste as a lookup and comparison problem rather than a general lifestyle topic. Visible entries attach material weights and production estimates to objects ranging from shampoo and ketchup bottles to suitcases and bedding, with labels for mixed materials and high virgin content. A separate microplastics section distinguishes findings by strength of evidence and links them to published studies. The page states that 608 products are in the archive, although several headline counters currently display zero.
